Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 54 Feeding and Hot Air Balloons
As expected, a few minutes later, the yellow velociraptor appeared again.

But this time, Lin Lin did not go back to continue grilling the meat. Instead, he grabbed the half-cooked steak and stared at it with a bad look.

Huang Sulong was startled and quickly took two steps back. Then he realized that this made him look cowardly, so he quickly lowered his body and leaned forward again, hoping that this would scare the other party away.

Lin Lin: ...

Do I look that timid?

Rolling his eyes inwardly, Lin Lin grabbed the steak and walked towards it.

The yellow speed dragon roared uneasily, showing its sharp fangs and claws, but all this could not stop Lin Lin's advance. However, it did not have the courage to take the initiative to attack, and could only retreat little by little as Lin Lin continued to approach, staring at the still fresh carcass of the armored dragon with sadness in its eyes.

Intimidation is no longer effective, and I'm going to starve again...

It's so miserable!

Lin Lin looked at this guy's cowardly and reckless behavior, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"That's pretty good. A noob should act like a noob. Here, this is your reward!"

Lin Lin threw the steak in his hand, and this action scared Huang Sulong so much that he jumped back and almost tripped over the stones on the ground.

Lin Lin threw the steak out and ignored it. He turned back to greet Coconut Date and chose a better place on the dragon corpse to cut off some raw meat.

Huang Sulong initially thought that the object thrown by the other party was used for attack, and was frightened and dodged hurriedly, but then the other party suddenly ignored it, which made its small head full of confusion.

What do you mean?
When the unique aroma produced by the heated oil entered his nostrils, Huang Sulong's eyes involuntarily stared at the large piece of steak that had fallen to the ground and was covered in sand.

Although I have never smelled this kind of fragrance, and it is not exactly the same as the smell of fresh flesh and blood, it is really tempting... It is a dragon-luring aroma!

Huang Sulong lowered his head to the steak and sniffed it carefully, trying to figure out what trap was hidden on it, but the hunger in his stomach kept rising, urging him to swallow the meat.

It hadn't eaten for many days, and the two pieces of meat it had swallowed previously were not even half the size of this steak. Not only did it fail to fill its stomach, but it also re-stimulated its digestive system, making it feel even hungrier.

Huang Sulong finally gave up thinking and started to eat the steak with relish. There was only one thought left in his mind.

Emma, ​​it smells so good!
……

Lin Lin put away the cut raw meat and turned his head to look at the remains of the Ankylosaurus on the ground. Although the best parts had been cut off by him, there was actually still a lot of meat. It was just that the remaining ones were not easy to cut, and he didn't have enough space to store them, so he decided to let it return to its natural cycle.

The Huang Sulong on the other side ate very quickly, just like a starving ghost. Lin Lin had just finished cutting the raw meat when it had already eaten every strand of meat on the steak and was now staring at him with burning eyes.

But this time, it didn't show the same alert posture as before, but just stared at this side with its long tail swinging slightly behind it with its breathing. This posture almost made Lin Lin imagine it as a big dog waiting to be fed.

In fact, its psychological activities were not much different from those of a big dog waiting to be fed, which almost made Lin Lin laugh out loud.

He kicked the skull of the ankylosaur at his feet, and moved a little further away with the cut raw meat and the barbecue grill, leaving the dining space for the yellow velociraptor.

We found a new place with a good view and started grilling. Jujube was a little confused.

"Boss meow, why did you leave all the remaining meat to that monster meow?"

Lin Lin smiled and sprinkled a handful of seasoning. "It's simple. The meat I just cut off is enough for us to eat for two meals. If we bring more, it will become a burden."

"In fact, this is also the unspoken rule among hunters. Take what you need and return the rest to nature."

"I see, meow! I'll remember that, meow!" Coconut Nods seriously, his eyes sweeping across the grill before he suddenly exclaims, "Meow! Turn off the heat quickly, meow! It's going to burn, meow!"

"Alas!"

Lin Lin hurriedly lifted the barbecue and took a closer look, then breathed a sigh of relief. "Luckily, Coconut Date, you reminded me in time. I almost forgot about it when I was distracted just now."

Is there a lunar calendar in Monster Hunter World? Why does it feel like today isn't a good day for barbecue?

"Oh right, meow! Boss, feeding the barbecue to that yellow velociraptor earlier was also in line with the 'return to nature' rule, meow?"

"Ahem," Lin Lin coughed dryly, "It's simply because the meat wouldn't taste good if I grilled it any further, and I didn't want to waste it. Seeing that guy kept trying to steal some, I just threw it to him."

"But Boss, meow, won't this have any impact on the ecology, meow?"

"Probably...not right?"

Lin Lin himself wasn't quite sure. It was just a yellow speed dragon. It wouldn't cause any problems, right?

"Anyway, let's finish our meal quickly and find a safe place to set up camp."

"Then rest for a night, and officially begin the search for the Sand Dragon King tomorrow."

"Good meow!"

……

Under the influence of his good biological clock, Lin Lin still got up early in the morning in high spirits. To his surprise, Jujube also got up right after him.

"Won't you take a break?"

Lin Lin suggested kindly. Since it was the first time for Little Date to come to a hunting ground in the wild, he was very nervous and tossed and turned until very late last night before falling asleep.

"No need, meow. I want to practice with the boss, meow. I can't let the boss fall behind because of me, meow!"

Lin Lin rubbed Coconut's helmet so hard that he almost twisted it.

Little Date is so cute. Although he behaved very well after arriving at the hunting ground, he still likes this little guy very much. He is not only obedient but also very aware and not spoiled at all.

It is not suitable to eat too greasy food for breakfast, so Lin Lin and Yezao used the food they brought with them to cook a pot of porridge and ate it. Then they took advantage of the energy to continue the search for traces that they had not completed yesterday.

Lin Lin had just found a relatively fresh trace on the edge of a sand pit when the nearby coconut suddenly warned him, "Boss, look at the meow in the sky!"

"Ok?"

Lin Lin looked up and saw a hot air balloon floating in the distant sky, slowly drifting towards this direction with the wind.

"Hey, this saves us trouble. We don't have to spend time looking for traces of monsters."

Coconut was confused, "Why did the boss say that, meow?"

Lin Lin pointed at the hot air balloon. "These types of observation balloons are usually jointly established by organizations like the Royal Paleontological Scribes, the Hunter's Guild, and the Ancient Dragon Observation Bureau. According to Sophia, they're primarily used for ecological observation... However, for us hunters, the key is that they provide us with monster coordinates."
